NOTICE OF MECHANICS LIEN
ATTENTION!
Upon the recording of the enclosed MECHANICS LIEN with the county recorder’s office
of the county where the property is located, your property is subject to the filing of a le-
gal action seeking a court-ordered foreclosure sale of the real property on which the lien
has been recorded. That legal action must be filed with the court no later than 90 days
after the date the mechanics lien is recorded.
The party identified in the mechanics lien may have provided labor or materials for im-
provements to your property and may not have been paid for these items. You are receiv-
ing this notice because it is a required step in filing a mechanics lien foreclosure action
against your property. The foreclosure action will seek a sale of your property in order to
pay for unpaid labor, materials, or improvements provided to your property. This may af-
fect your ability to borrow against, refinance, or sell the property until the mechanics lien
is released.
BECAUSE THE LIEN AFFECTS YOUR PROPERTY, YOU MAY WISH TO SPEAK WITH
YOUR CONTRACTOR IMMEDIATELY, OR CONTACT AN ATTORNEY, OR FOR MORE IN-
FORMATION ON MECHANICS LIENS GO TO THE CONTRACTORS' STATE LICENSE
